5 out of 5 stars

I have had continues gout flair ups for over 15 years in my feet, knees, hands and wrists... I have taken all the medications available with no relief. I cut out all red meet, shell fish, wines and still had major flair ups. It was getting so frustrating. I come to find out my flair ups are from sugar I tracked what I ate for about a month and a half and my flair ups are from sugar I was consuming. I was taking cherry juice concentrate yet it had sugar so I did not see great results. I typed in gout in the search box in this online vitamin store I have been buying products from.. The results came up Tart Cherry Extract in a capsule form, WOW it worked. The bottle said to take 1 per day but I took 4 - 4 times per day (DO NOT do what I did unless you talk to your doctor) I have never felt better.

Yes, I also take tart cherry extract, and I take 2 pills of 1000mg 4 times a day. It works very well keeping gout away. Yes the bottle said take 1 pill 2 times a day. I've been taking cherry extract for over 6 years. I've also found that it lowered my uric acid level after my blood test at the doctor. Also I haven't found any side effects that I know of. Lastly, I drink lots of water when taking cherry extract. Hope this helps
